Shares of State Street (NYSE:STT) are down over 8% in pre-market Monday after the Boston-based bank missed analyst estimates for the first quarter.
STT posted EPS of $1.52 on revenue of $3.1 billion, missing the consensus for earnings of $1.65 per share on sales of $3.13B. Fee revenue declined by 9.2% year-over-year to $2.34B, driving the top-line underperformance.
The company said its EPS performance was impacted by a $1B liquidity injection into the U.S. financial system, which was a $0.06 per share drag on Q1 results.
“Our first-quarter results reflect the resiliency of our business model, notwithstanding continued interest rate increases and subsequent significant market movements, volatility and disruption within other parts of the banking industry. Through this, our total revenue was durable and grew as we delivered strong year-over-year net interest income growth, which enabled us to offset fee revenue headwinds from significantly lower average market levels,” Ron O'Hanley, chairman and chief executive officer, said.
“In addition, operating costs were well-controlled and our strong balance sheet position enabled us to return capital to shareholders while joining other leading institutions in contributing to efforts to stabilize the U.S. banking system in the first quarter.”
The bank reported $26B in net outflows while analysts were expecting inflows of $8.44B. Net interest income (NII) was $766M, again below the consensus of $791.6M. State Street set aside $44M for credit losses.
Assets under management (AUM) were $3.62T, marking a 3.9% YoY increase. The common equity Tier 1 ratio came in better than expected at 12.1% while the Street was looking for 11.8%.
Finally, the return on average equity was 9.3%, missing the 9.8% consensus.
Vital Knowledge analysts commented that bank earnings so far suggest that “money centers are doing well while regionals exceed subdued forecasts and (if STT is any indication) the trusts fall short.”
